Double stars shine in Los Angeles

Chapter 100 Peak Showdown ([-])

At the end of the first game, the Los Angeles Lakers led by two points at home and temporarily took the lead in scoring, but in terms of performance in the first quarter, the two sides were evenly matched.

In the second quarter, the Los Angeles Lakers adjusted their lineup, center Li Yifeng, power forward Paul Pierce, small forward Lin Fengzhe, shooting guard Kobe Bryant, and point guard Tracy McGrady.The Miami Heat replaced Udonis Haslem with Chris Bosh, and the starters in other positions remained unchanged.

In the second quarter, the Miami Heat attacked first.Mario Chalmers passes the basketball to Dwyane Wade after halftime.Dwyane Wade broke through and passed Kobe Bryant in disguise.Lin Fengzhe, who was defending LeBron James, came from the side to help defend, successfully stealing the basketball controlled by Dwyane Wade, and dribbling the ball directly into a fast break.

At this time, the Miami Heat's half court was unguarded, Lin Fengzhe drove to the maximum speed and went straight to the basket of the Heat, followed by LeBron James who was chasing after him.Heat fans watching the game at home in Miami are expecting LeBron James to put on a big-cap chase.

Of course, Lin Fengzhe knew that LeBron James often sent a chasing hat under such circumstances, so he took the time to glance back to see if any teammates did it.Seeing that he had reached the basket, Lin Fengzhe did not choose to attack by himself, but stopped suddenly, and the soles of his shoes and the floor made harsh friction sounds.Lin Fengzhe, who braked urgently, moved laterally, came to the right side of the basket, and then passed the basketball. The person who caught the ball was Tracy McGrady, and Dwyane Wade immediately came up to defend .

"Here!" It was Li Yifeng who reached out for the ball at the top arc.Tracy McGrady passed the basketball right away.After receiving the pass, Li Yifeng took a step back and stepped out of the three-point line. He raised his hand and was about to shoot. Chris Bosh, who rushed back, jumped up and swung his left hand from his face to slap the basketball away. However, Li Yifeng was short , Waited until Chris Paul had already flown over before shooting, and the arm touched Chris Paul's body.

The referee's whistle sounded, pointing at Chris Bosh, indicating a defensive foul, and Li Yifeng made a successful foul.The basketball that has already been thrown is hit into the basket, and a three-pointer is counted as a free throw.At the beginning of the second quarter, Li Yifeng scored four points with penalty shots, widening the gap to six points.

"I really didn't expect that Coach Erik Spoelstra would keep LeBron James and Dwyane Wade on the court. Don't you need to be careful about physical strength? They were in the Eastern Conference finals with It took the Boston Celtics seven games to make the cut, and every game was tough," Kenny Smith said on the televised table.

"With LeBron James' non-human physique, there should be no problem. Moreover, the Heat's bench lineup is really not comparable to that of the Lakers. If they are on the bench, they will soon be widened by the Lakers. Yes." Charles Barkley said, "If the Lakers are willing to accept me next season, I will definitely choose to come back, and a ring with them is also a good choice."

"Are you optimistic that the Lakers can win the championship next year?" Kenny Smith said, "But even if you post it to the Lakers, the Lakers will not want you. If you go, it will be a waste of the team's roster. .”

"I believe the Lakers can win the championship this season, and as long as they can keep the current lineup of the global team, three consecutive championships will be extremely easy for them." Charles Barkley looked at Kenny Smith with disdain, As if despising him for asking such an idiotic question.

Just as the two were talking, the offensive team became the Lakers again.Kobe Bryant singles Dwyane Wade.Fake move past Dwyane Wade and take off directly.This is a common tactic that Kobe Bryant has used for two seasons here. He first fakes past the defender and then immediately shoots.

Dwyane Wade is clearly aware of Kobe Bryant's offensive routine.After being cheated, he immediately turned around and jumped up, swung his arms and slapped it down, changing Kobe Bryant's shot with a palm.The closest Mario Chalmers immediately stepped forward to pick up the basketball and fast break.

However, Mario Chalmers' speed was not very fast, and he was quickly caught up.Fortunately, Dwyane Wade had rushed out first, and Mario Chalmers immediately passed the basketball.At this time Kobe Bryant has also caught up.Dwyane Wade passed the ball to LeBron James on the other side, then sped past Kobe Bryant for another alley-oop dunk on a return pass from LeBron James.

At 20:[-] of the second quarter, the Lakers called a timeout to replace Kobe Bryant and Pau Gasol with Steve Blake and Josh McRoberts.

"Lin, in the next time, you need to strengthen your personal offense. Before you can take unlimited shots, if the opponent attracts the Heat's double-team, then distribute the ball to the teammate who has an open shot. Grab the offensive rebound." Mike Brown told the players.

The game resumed after the timeout ended, with Mario Chalmers and Dwyane Wade replaced by Udonis Haslem and Norris Cole.Shane Battier returned to small forward and LeBron James to shooting guard.

After the substitution, the Heat's offensive firepower has weakened.The Lakers followed the instructions of coach Mike Brown, and the ball was concentrated in the hands of Lin Fengzhe.

Facing Sean Battier's defense, Lin Fengzhe's strategy is to turn around and take a step-back jumper immediately after opening the space with his back. .Relying on this method, Lin Fengzhe succeeded in three consecutive singles against Shane Battier, which also caused a defensive foul by Shane Battier, scoring seven points in a row by himself.

Sure enough, the Miami Heat team Lin Fengzhe started double-teaming defense.But whether Chris Bosh or LeBron James stepped forward to cooperate with Sean Battier's defense, there will always be an open space. After Tracy McGrady received Lin Fengzhe's pass twice in a row and hit the open space, LeBron James didn't dare to help his teammates defend Lin Fengzhe easily.

As for Josh McRoberts, who is playing against Chris Bosh, his mid-range shooting percentage has improved a lot this season, and he can't let it go easily.

For a while, it was difficult for the Heat to make an effective defense on the scene, and the Lakers seized the opportunity to widen the point difference to twelve points.Heat coach Erik Spoelstra immediately called a timeout to make adjustments, and at the same time replaced Dwyane Wade again to strengthen the offense and chase points.

The game continued, LeBron James and Dwyane Wade both strengthened their breakthroughs, the Lakers' Josh McRoberts was fouled by the two early respectively, and both scored two plus one, and the score gap was narrowed to ten.

At 45:[-] seconds into the second quarter, Dwyane Wade steals Steve Blake for a fast-break layup, and then Chris Bosh grabs a rebound from the backcourt. The Heat counterattacked quickly and LeBron ·James scored a layup while drawing another defensive foul on Josh McRoberts.

LeBron James made a free throw, and in less than 1 minute, the Heat played a [-]-[-] spurt, reducing the point difference to five points.

Stephen Blake passed the basketball to Lin Fengzhe before halftime, and Lin Fengzhe went to the frontcourt to break through with the ball and passed the ball to Tracy McGrady on the wing. He hit an open three-pointer and the score gap widened again. The situation of the Lakers has stabilized.

LeBron James missed a three-pointer and the halftime score was 50 to 44. The Lakers temporarily led by six points at home and entered the second half of the game.

"The strength of the Lakers is still higher than that of the Heat. They have more stable scoring points than the Heat. The Lakers have three scoring points on the court most of the time, while the Heat only have two and a half. Chris Bosh's The state is not very good, and the offensive end can not help the team much. When Dwyane Wade was off the court, the Heat's attack power dropped significantly. And LeBron James and Dwyane Wade The playing time is longer than the main scorer of the Lakers, and the huge physical consumption will inevitably affect the subsequent shooting touch." Charles Barkley summed up the first half of the game.

"The Miami Heat's defense should continue to strengthen in the second half. Chris Bosh not only failed to show his strength on the offensive end in the first half, but also did not do well on the defensive end. If they don't improve their defense, It is impossible to win the game.” Kenny Smith criticized Chris Bosh’s performance in the first half, “As one of the Big Three, Chris Bosh should use his strength to prove his worth. "

The Lakers locker room. "The performance in the first half was very good, so I won't say much. In the second half, Li Yifeng, Andrew Bynum, Lin Fengzhe, Kobe Bryant, Tracy McGrady played." Mike Brown After arranging the appearances, the personnel continued, "The task at the beginning of the third quarter is to grab points, let LeBron James score on the defensive end, and lock up the other players of the Heat."

"I'm afraid this will allow him to score high on our territory." Kobe Bryant was a little reluctant. After all, the highlight of the league's finals this year was "23VS24". Kobe Bryant was obviously unwilling to let LeBron · James looks better than him statistically.

"As long as you can win, that's fine. The winner will always be respected. As long as you win the championship and get the MVP, who cares about LeBron James' statistics." Lin Fengzhe hummed while receiving a massage from the masseur .
